WTF is Cosplay?
I must be an idiot. I don't get what 'it' is. I'm looking at it. I see men looking silly mostly. Sexy women... mostly. WTF is it?

In a nutshell, it's short for
Costume Play
, dressing up as their favorite characters and it applies to both men and women. Personally, I think it should just be women. But that's just me.

Is there sex involved?
Like those teddy bear fetishes?

Sex is involved with everything. But
Cosplay
is basically those guys and dolls walking around
Comic Con
, creating a bond with other like-minded souls that also like to dress up. If it leads to sex, great. But this isn't a sex thing. It's not a fetish if that's what your thinking. People don't dress up as
Superman
or
Catwoman
hoping to get laid. Well, that isn't entirely true. We all dress one way or another to woo that hot chick down the street. But that's a different story for a different day................

So, is it just the events they do this or do this pretty regularly?

Cosplay
is mostly associated with
Cons
, movie events and whatnot. But they do have
Cosplay
parties that people throw, just to give themselves and excuse to dress up.

Actually, as someone pointed out on twitter, almost no one dresses as Wonder Woman. It's kinda weird.

Hottest Cosplay - SDCC 2013
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ESol6j5hfk
Hottest is a matter of opinion and not one I agree with 100%. Sure, there are a few hotties to be found, but most are average at best.
